A Streaming build! Spot my Problems please!

Preface:

 

All of the parts are from Scan.co.uk but willing to buy from elsewhere (UK shipping)

My Budget is around £2100 and is flexible but preferable to stay its current price (as of writing) at £2059

I am mainly using this to Stream on Twitch and would like to know if this setup has any issues streaming.

I currently run 2 monitors (60hz) and would like to stay this way. 

I currently have a HyperX cloud 2 headset, HyperX Alloy FPS Keyboard and a Logitech G502 Mouse.

I plans to start using an Audio interface and XLR Microphone but with no certain options.

I am upgrading because my Current PC is 10 years old and on its last legs for Streaming and my current motherboard doesn't give me many options (H97-hd3)

I am also looking for a PC that would last a fairly long time without a dire need to upgrade as my current one has had for its last year.

 

I also am not sure if the parts all fit into the case.

What's your original spec of your PC? Have you tried using NVENC or Intel QuickSync? Before I had NVENC capabilities, I record gameplay footage using Intel QuickSync with high bitrate. It's not really bad, considering that it's Sandy/Ivy Bridge era. Maybe before upgrading, look deeper into your existing options.

 

Meanwhile, everything else looks fine, I recommend up the RAM from 2.4GHz to 2.666.

 

I prefer M.2 SSD, despite it's using SATA/AHCI interface.

 

No one is going to scrutinised like AMD does in the image quality, plus, there the streaming server on the other end, so video artifacting, may not be your fault.

I have fixed this on my Original list so no longer is a TR4. Thank you very much.

Why? Is there a Problem with it? I have seen a lot of praise for Dark Rock Pro.

The one you have selected is for TR4.

Stick with the Gigabyte board, or any of the Aorus ones as they are better.

I would disagree, look at cost first then tell me how much more performance is gained with the Aorus board?

Except the Ultra or any of the aorus boards won't throttle with a 9900K unlike the MSI board. If he wants something the same price then there is the Elite or Pro.

What resolution are you playing at?

 

Only the tower needed in the budget? What about OS?

 

If you're playing at 1080p 60hz you might as well get a R7 2700 and a GTX 1660 and call it a day...
